Michael Palin

As Michael Palin celebrates his 25 years of travel writing and broadcasting he talks to the BBC in a special event in front of a live audience. His travels have taken him from the North Pole to the Sahara desert, from the Himalayas to Brazil and his travel documentaries and books have captivated audiences from across the world. He talks to Rajan Datar, not only one of the BBC's top travel reporters but also a life-long Palin fan, about his career in travel broadcasting.
